What a House viii Cost.

There is an old saying that fools
Guild houses and wise men live in
them. Whenever a man of moderate
means decided to have a home of his
own. planned to meet individual re-
,quirements and fashioned according to
hhs lasts, he is reminded both by eau
,tious and by ,envious neighbors of this
disagreeable proverb. IF he turns to
the pages of any standard "Great
Truths by Great Authors he will
find recorded such warnings as this:
.-'tNever, build a house after you are As;
have five years income in hand before
you lay a brick, and always calculate
the expense at double the estimate"
His acquaintance, giving him the ben.
eft of their own experience in build
ing, will assure him that the actual
<cost invariably oyerlaps the original es-
Inmates. If a candid architect be con-
suited he will. confess that nobody can
tell what a shouse will cost until it is
built, since there are unknown guam
titles in the problem that cannot be as
.eertained except by actual experiment.
.Shrewd contractors will even go so far
.as to say that the same house cannot
be built, a second time for the same
money. Indeed, SO numerous are the
warnings, and so dense is the uncer-
stainty respecting the final cost, that
the prudent householder is not to be
blamed if, after a careful survey of the
field, he, decides against taking the risk
,of playing the fool for the benefit of
the wise III who may ultimately sue
coed to his castle in the all. -New York

Marriage and Divorce.

The question of marriage and divorce
is again occupying the attention O;
many Of the Protestant denominations,
OF these denominations the Episco-
palians appear to have the str,ctest
marriage law, but they are not satisfied
with it, and in their recent general con
vention an effort was made to pass a
more stringent canon on the subject.
but the effort failed for want of time.
It is said, however, by many 'Episco.
palians that some Of their clergy ignore
the provisions of the present law, and
while this state OF affairs is allowed to
exist they think it would be useless to
enact any more laws. The Congrega-
tionalists are also anxious to do some
thing in regard to this matter, but they
don't appear to know just what to do.
The same is. true of the Presby terians
and other sccts which have passed reso-
lutions emphasizing the need of doing
something. On the one hand it is not
deemed proper, even if it were possible
to take the Roman Catholic ground
in regard to marriage and divorce,
although it is admitted by many
Professionals that this would be the
strongest possible ground to take. And
on the other hand it is not deemed safe
to take the. ground that marriage is
purely a civil contract; for the logical
outcome of such q view is just the very
evil which it is desired to correct,
Professionalism is compelled by the
logic of its position to take a middle
course. The church, it is held, should
throw the safeguards of religion around
marriage. but the state may be per,
mitted to regulate it. 1t is a holy rite,
but it is also a civil contract. 1t should
indeed be solemnized by the church,
but it may be dissolved by the state.
This view OF marriage, however, does
not seem to have worked as well as its
originators hoped and now the tenden-
,cy apparently is to make the state laws
in regard to marriage as stringent as
the laws of the church ought to be. A
national divorce law is talked of in
some quarters, and the clergy are asked
to use their influence to have the ques'
ton brought up in various state legis.
latures. In the meantime the Roman
Catholic church processes to follow lit
orally the divine law ON this subject,
and is calmly Indifferent to the excited
discussion that is going on in regard tc

A Lapp Wedding.

Down the room was a large table,
covered with coarse cloth. perhaps, if
for grand folks, but not much more
likely in its native baroness. Upon the
arrival of the wedding party the feast
began Boiled meat was brought in a
large dish, or just as likely piled up on
the table till it was full. On the top of
this came dirty bowls full of grease.
Round this savory and appetizing repast
gathered the hungry Lapps, ravenous
as wolves. and fell upon it with appe-
titles that would astonish any western
dweller in u cultured land. They came
to eat, and they did eat! Lumps OF
meat were seized by natures forks-in-
gers as black as Goals. innocent of wa
ter for unknown periods, clad in ancient
grime-plunged into the grease, and
then, all luscious and dripping, convey
ed to the cavernous mouths of the as
sembled. After this came the dessert
reindeer cheese cut into pieces, dipped
into the grease, and eaten with a horn
spoon or fingers. Huge draughts of corn
brandy washed all down. Right dill
gently was the bottle piled, with ever
and anon q quaff from the grease
bowl to keep the brandy from taking
too much effect, the grease leaving its
traces on the drinkers faces, till at
last they shone in their fatty coating.
Now began the real wedding joy''-
guests singing and shouting with all
the vigor of powerful and healthy
lungs. Songs, were improvised, gen
orally ~senseless, because the IMPROVE
sor was so. Soon some Of the guests
tell asleep OF the table. and were. SHOW
eled on to the %seats-or under them
against the walls by such of their COM
rades as were able to take part IN the
next proceedings, i. g. dancing, if
such it should be called, Afresh rose
a tempest of shouting and jumping-a
wild scene, we are told, our Ears can
not conceive. Fiddlers scraped and
scraped, and were encouraged to
scrape yet louder, while some Lapp,
more musical than, the others beat time
with a pothook on the kettle bottom.
Soon the floor was dotted with the
forms OF those who were too drunk to
jump any more, and there they Law
snoring. while their comrades hoped
and roared over them till they, too, fell
amid the slain. The general ending
was that the whole party slept togeth-

some one to sew on buttons for him.
This, however, like q great many Other
ideas that originated with the ancients,
is q mistaken one and is fast going oud
of ,e~xistance. The married man Of to.
day, on losing a button, calls the atten.
